The Chicago rapper has talked about retiring for several years.
In 2008, Lupe Fiasco said he would be retiring soon. “It was 96% about a week ago,” he said in January 2008 after performing in Las Vegas. “I just get tired you know? I get tired. It’s a tiring pace that I keep. You see that [show I just did]? I gotta do that again tomorrow. With this [hoarse] voice I gotta find a way to do it again. Then get on a bus for 16 hours, get up and do it all over again for the next two weeks.”
On September 5, 2012, Lupe Fiasco said he would retire after the release of Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor II: The Great American Rap Album, which was arrived in stores September 25, 2012. “my heart is broken and i see no comfort further along this path only more pain. I cannot participate any longer in this,” he tweeted at the time.
